I wrote a lot of pieces in 2020! As we close out the year, I want to share a short list of my favorites. (thread)

In March, while we all watched in horror as the Trump administration botched the initial response to the pandemic, I wrote for @Independent about the bizarre and unjust access many healthy celebrities gained to COVID tests, which were quite scarce. https://t.co/jdKj5CIALt
In April, when it was apparent Joe Biden was on his way to winning the nomination, I wrote for @washingtonpost on why progressives should have optimism about a Biden White House. https://t.co/Sw5aPZiMLV
In June, the Supreme Court issued a landmark ruling affirming employment protections for LGBTQ people. It's cause for celebration, but as I wrote for @Cosmopolitan: this is a mere fraction of LGBTQ equality. We *must* pass the Equality Act. https://t.co/UuZFxLAVrs
That same month brought controversy as J.K. Rowling seemed to be completely unaware of the violence and discrimination faced by trans and non-binary people. So, I wrote about my own experiences in that vein for @USAToday in the hopes of educating folks: https://t.co/kYqvRukfOs
In September, it was reported that Trump insulted American war dead, calling them "losers" and "suckers". I wrote for @USAToday about my experiences on a casket team at Dover. This is the most widely read piece I've written anywhere. I'm quite proud of it. https://t.co/7xwjGWRXPt
In October, SNL gently mocked Joe Biden about LGBTQ issues under the assumption he's old and uninformed. In response, I wrote for @USAToday about his strong history on LGBTQ rights and why his administration will be the most pro-LGBTQ ever. https://t.co/AfwGlN0CRU
Election Night brought a lot of anxiety to so many folks, but in the days afterward, it was pretty clear that LGBTQ candidates performed remarkably well, particularly trans and non-binary candidates. I wrote about it for @Independent: https://t.co/ZXvWKhgRxF
Finally, I wrote about the happiest day in recent memory: when news outlets universally (and finally) declared Joe Biden the President-elect and Kamala Harris the VP-elect. Knowing the tough work ahead of all of us, I took a moment to celebrate. https://t.co/WXJ60bUNpM
If you like all this, I've just started a Substack for 2021. My dream is to make a living from writing someday. But first, I'd like to earn your paid subscription, which is why it's free to sign up. And if you choose a paid subscription, THANK YOU: https://t.co/NIxt4FEL6K

The Drosten RT-PCR test is fabricated in a way that each country and laboratory perform it differently at too high Ct and that the high rate of false positives increases massively due to cross-reaction with other (corona) viruses in the "flu

Even asymptomatic, previously called healthy, people are tested (en masse) in this way, although there is no epidemiologically relevant asymptomatic transmission. This means that even healthy people are declared as COVID

Deaths within 28 days after a positive RT-PCR test from whatever cause are designated as deaths WITH COVID. This means that other causes of death are reclassified as
